A note on stats: at these low levels, you will want to stack int and stam. There are other stats, but you don't need to worry about them right now. You will be upgrading gear so fast fast things like crit and haste can't hold to their caps, so don't worry about them. Don't get gear with spirit on it, spirit is bad, mages and warlocks don't have any use for it.

Here are the professions and addon's your mage or warlock should use. To get addons just go to curse.com, download their client, and pick the addons you want. It will install them automatically.

professions

mining and skinning

if you don't have a farmer alt, you should level up with one. I think mining and skinning are the best gathering professions for leveling players. Don't go with herbalism because the only way to level it up is to farm. at least you can smelt with mining, and you will be skinning all the mobs you kill. Because of this it's a major chore that will prevent you from doing more important things, like leveling up. farming is easier at high levels because you will have a flying mount.

tailoring and enchanting

if you do have a farmer alt, take tailoring and enchanting instead. These are good professions to have at high levels and will keep your gear up to date as you are leveling.
